The Citywide Council for District 75 (CCD75) is proud to share our 2024–2025 Annual Report, which reflects the voices, experiences, and priorities of District 75 families across all five boroughs.

District 75 serves approximately 29,000 students with the most significant disabilities. Each year, the Citywide Council gathers parent input, documents systemwide challenges, and elevates recommendations to improve access, safety, and educational outcomes for students with disabilities.

This report represents both lived experience and system insight—bridging what families encounter every day with the structures, policies, and decisions that shape District 75 services.

What’s Inside the Report

The Annual Report highlights:

• Parent and caregiver experiences across NYC

• Transportation, access, and service delivery challenges

• Staffing and capacity gaps impacting students and schools

• Communication and family engagement barriers

• Council observations and recommendations informed by parent voice, data, and regulatory frameworks
